looking for a bug deflector

I've noticed that here in United States, we don't have much accessories for our MP5's. I have been looking for a bug deflector for days now all over online, no such luck. I even called my Local Mazda dealer, and they told me, they don't have bug deflectors for my MP5. I've seen it online for the Canadian's MP5. So my question is will the canadian's MP5's bug deflector fit my MP5?

Ever think of using that clear 3M stuff on the hood instead of a deflector? Pretty much any tint shop can do it and it is fairly cheap. I was quoted $70 CDN for the hood and the mirrors.

Just a suggestion. If you are interested in a hood deflector, my buddy has one on his. I can find out where he got it and you could order one, if you like.

LMK by e-mail if you're interested...

which one u like better? I have a 98 Protege, decided to buy a bra for it (3 years ago) cuz it looks nice with it, but later I found out it also does alot of damage to the hood. So i've learned my lesson, not to buy a bra for any of my cars. That's why with my new 02 P5, I've decided to go with a deflector. I know the magnetic bra is another option (and a cheaper option), but i don't want to take the risk and buy it and it turned out to be like the other bra and damage my hood with dents and scratches.
